If I remember right, the JDM accord came with the B20 with 160 hp. H series will be a nice in your engine bay. Try either route

You can put in any motor you feel like fabricating mounts for. I've seen the same year Prelude with an H22A in it. Looks good. A good direct swap would be the B series swap. If you want VTEC, frankenstien it. If you want tq, Do a search on the 2nd or 3rd Gen Preludes and find out how they did their H22A swaps

Someone correct me but the B-series in 3rd gen accords and the B-series in the Civics and Integras are not the same design engine. I have seen a H22 put into the same gen. Prelude but you had to lose Air and PS I believe. Search Google for 3rd gen prelude h22. :crazy:

Hmmmmm, I am not sure. You could give places like Hasport a call but google search better.

Knowing from experience get the B20. Or just get an A20 factory replacement, rebuild and build it up for boost. A20s are very tough little engines, and can hold up to 10 lbs of boost on a stock healthy engine. Some A20s have even made it in to the 9s runs. Heres a link to one of the most helpful sites you will ever find for the 3gee. www.3geez.com I've been a memeber since I got my accord and it has helped me a lot.

Had a friend who put an ls motor in one a few years ago, so with that being said just about any bseries should fit
